Meet Pepper, a 5-year-old, 75-pound bundle of black-and-white joy who is ready to steal your heart!
Pepper is a fixed female American Staffordshire Terrier mix who absolutely loves people. She is the ultimate social butterfly—she even wags her tail and gets excited to visit the vet! If you have room in your life for endless affection, Pepper is your girl. She loves giving kisses and has the most irresistible pouty lip youve ever seen.
Why We Call Her Our "Truffle Pig"
Pepper is a curious explorer who loves going on walks to sniff out every interesting scent. We affectionately call her our little "truffle pig" because she makes the absolute cutest piggy snorting noises whenever her nose is glued to the ground!
Her Favorite Things
Water Play: She loves splashing around in lakes, streams, or kiddie pools (just don't ask her to go out in the rain or take a bath—lol!).
Crate Time: Pepper is fully crate trained and views her crate as her safe, cozy sanctuary.
Exploring: She is always up for a fun outdoor walk to see the sights.
Her Ideal Home
Pepper is looking to be the spoiled queen of her castle! She needs to be the only dog in the home, as she prefers to keep her toys and treats all to herself (resource guarding with other dogs). Because she is a strong, powerful girl, she will do best with a strong and consistent handler who can give her confident guidance on walks. (Workingw with a trainer to work on leash manors is a fantastic way to fix this!)
Health Note
Pepper has mild seasonal allergies, but they are incredibly easy to manage! She just gets a quick allergy shot twice a year, and she is perfectly happy, healthy, and itch-free.

If youre looking for a goofy, loving, water-loving companion with the cutest snort in town, Pepper is waiting for you!
